What I Know Essay Everyone needs to be loved. Or even to love something. At some point in a persons life, they find one person that they love with all their heart. This may happen more than once, or many times. For me, I have that one person that will love me till the end of the world. And I will do just the same. Of course most people have their parents or relatives to love them. Every Thanksgiving I get to see all my relatives. I hug them and we talk throughout dinner about school and old memories they have about their childhood. I love spending time with them and seeing them throughout the years. My uncle lives in Arizona with my cousin and we see each other not that often. He is always making jokes about everything and thinks everything is funny. When you get to know him, he becomes less annoying. My aunt loves to cook. She makes the most amazing macaroni and cheese. I could eat it for the rest of my life. You can always hear her laugh in a crowd of people. After a day of all the talking and laughing, we are tired and say goodbye. Its the kind of goodbye that you can go through many times. There are others that you can't say goodbye to. A couple years ago, I liked a boy. He was a year younger and because of the school I went to, I had known him for the past few years. Eventually he asked me out. At first I loved him. Then, being the awkward teenagers we were, didn't know what to do together. After a while, he called me during the summer and broke up with me. It didn't hurt as much as I thought it would. I imagined it as my heart being shattered. But now I realize that I needed to love him with all my heart for that to happen. I went through the summer like normal and didn’t think about him at all. I thought it would be a while before I would date someone else. And that I had to let it go. During the summer, I volunteer at a sailing center and teach kids how to sail. There, the volunteers are called SHARKS. We all get along great and have so much fun whenever we are together. At the time, I never knew I would love one of them. Near the end of the summer I rode my bike home, as I did every day. I had showered and just settled in on my couch ready to watch one of my favorite shows, when I got a text from one of the other SHARKS. He was asking if I wanted to ride to Arroyo Verde. Being myself, I said yes. I was surprised at how excited I was. I got ready very quickly and got my bike back out. I sat outside my locked house waiting for him to arrive. And when he did, I smiled. When I got home after, I took another shower and made food. We started texting and I found myself smiling more. After an hour or so of texting back and forth, I got one that said, “I was going to do this at the park, but I got nervous. Do you want to go out with me?” I thought for a second. Then, with a gigantic smile on my face, I replied. “Yes” That has been the best decision of my life. Now, I see him every day at school. At lunch he wrapps his arms around me and kisses me on the cheek. He tells me I'm cute, beautiful, and perfect just the way I am. He tells me that he loves it when I smile and it makes him smile when he sees it. I love every second of it and I never want it to end. I never want to say goodbye. I now realize that if he ever breaks up with me, my heart will be broken. Because I love him with all my heart.
